Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.When will the British film industry cease from making these contrived, trivial and mawkish "feelgood comedies". My three-year-old son could have written this.
Martin Freeman (always good, even in the most fearsome hogwash) plays Mr Maddens, a sad and lonely (his girlfriend, Ashley Jensen, up and left him one Christmas) teacher, working at an under-achieving Catholic primary school, run by a moist-eyed Pam Ferris. Every year the school competes with a local private school for the best production of the Christmas nativity play. They always lose. This year Mr Maddens is determined to win. Inane.
